A proposition for musicians

Hourglass Apps has developed a ringtone management application for Android. We would like to create a customised version of this application that would incorporate a selection of your songs.
This application would be branded so as to promote your
music or your band. Profits generated directly by it would be divided between you and Hourglass Apps.

The first products of this collaboration with musicians were Bringtone and Bringtone Pro,
which were created in conjunction with the producer of the
Jackass-Penguin Show's Jazzy Selection podcast.
The Bringtone range of applications allow a user to create playlists of songs
to use as ringtones. When a call is received, a song from an assigned playlist begins to play.
A subsequent call results in the next song
playing. With each new phone call the app cycles further through the playlist of songs.
The applications are well integrated with Android and
allow the user to configure both the phone's default ringtone and ringtones for individual contacts.

Your application would be similar, just with different branding and of course, different pre-installed music.

Summary

The zero-project Ring Kit allows you to create musical playlists and assign these as your phone's main ringtone or as the ringtones for specific contacts.

This ringtone manager comes with an excellent selection of ringtones by zero-project.

Usage

Imagine you have a number of albums in different folders on your phone. With just a few button presses you can assign an album to be the ringtone playlist for one of your contacts. Now when you get a call from this contact, a song from the album will play. When the same contact calls again the app retrieves the next song in the playlist so that over time as you receive further phone calls, you'll hear each of the album's songs.

Features

Integrates seamlessly with Android so that you can:

Assign a default ringtone playlist,

Set up playlists for individual contacts and

See at a glance the playlists that are assigned to your contacts.

Enables you to create and edit multiple ringtone playlists by:

Adding to a playlist one song at a time

Scanning a folder on your phone to add multiple songs

Reordering your music using drag 'n drop

Summary

Headset Volume automatically restores earlier saved volume settings when headphones are inserted or removed.
This reduces the need for the user to fiddle with volume controls.

In Detail

Avoid the hassle of
reaching for the volume button on your Android device
every time you insert or remove headphones. With this
app running in the background it will remember the
volume you set while your headphones are plugged in to
use it again the next time you insert them. Then when
you remove your headphones it will switch back to the
normal volume settings.

Unlike some other similar
apps, Headset Volume does not require an additional mixer
GUI to configure the volume.
